"The hotel was absolutely lovely, with the best view over all of Chania, and the owners were incredibly friendly. I would love to come back again and again!"
"This is our third stay at this hotel. It is excellent, the staff are so friendly and professional. The food in the restaurant was excellent and the breakfast was excellent as well, with a lot of choices. The view over Chania from our room which was very comfortable, with a large balcony was fantastic."
"This is a modern hotel which is well staffed with helpful people. The rooms are comfortable, breakfast is exceptional and there is a good choice of dishes for brunch and dinner.
The hotel is located on the Venetian harbourside, a short walk from the centre of the town. Relaxing, friendly, comfortable and convenient!"
"Elia Bottelo met all are needs. The staff are an asset, the rooms are clean with very comfy beds and lovely showers. Breakfasts had a lot of choice and staff always had a smile on their faces.
We loved Chania but this hotel made a very memorable stay and we would love to come back.
Thank you too to all reception staff.
Jennifer and Derek Pears"
"This is our second stay at the Samaria and we would return. The staff are extremely professional, the rooms clean and the breakfast amazing. So good to have a pool in the centre of the city."
"We had an amazing time. It felt like a really family oriented hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Nice facilities. Even a small gym, wich was’nt listed. The room was fantastic, however if you have problems with stairs, maybe not the hotel for you. Our aircondition broke one day, but the hotel fixed it straight away and was very helpful. You could also get breakfast to go if you needed it for a Tripp."
"Amazing staff. So helpful with all questions and anything we needed they provided, towels, shampoos and whatever it was. Recommend highly. Thank you for making our honeymoon memorable"

Chania Archaeological Museum is just one of the attractions in Halepa, Chania so you might want to stop by during your trip. Why not take a stroll along the beaches and watch the sunset while you're here? If you want to experience more of the culture Chania has to offer, head to Koum Kapi Beach, Chania Central Market, and Old Venetian Harbor.
If you're planning a bit of sightseeing head to Tabakaria— just one of the monuments in Halepa. Why not take a stroll along the beaches and watch the sunset while you're here?

Very friendly and helpful staff. There is only street parking, but not hard to find, behind the hotel area. So many restaurants right there. Drove to the most famous Cretan beaches, but the local beach is also very nice. very picturesque. We could see the lighthouse from our window.
Eleutheria, our host in this family-operated hotel was wonderful. She took time to show us all of Chania's sights and recommended delicious restaurants far from the tourist trap locales circling the Venetian Harbor. The hotel smartly stocks the in-room refrigerator with fresh fruit, beer, sodas and juices -- all complimentary. They also provided us with a bottle of red wine from the family's winery. We also received a carafe of their homemade raki. I would definitely stay here again.
Great location to walk around Chania Old town each night. Tholos restaurant is two door down and it has amazing food. Parking is a nightmare, but we loved the location and our little balcony that over looked our narrow side street. The owner and staff were amazing and very helpful.
No complaints whatsoever about or stay. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful and accommodating. The room was spotless, the bed was comfortable, the view from the balcony gorgeous. I’d have loved if the pool was heated, but otherwise, the stay was absolutely perfect.
A beautiful restored mansion which transports you into the fairytale world of your long lost great aunt. That is if your great aunt was a wealthy diplomat's wife. The service is warm and personal. The rooms are vintage in a delightfully comfortable way. Breakfast is customized each day to your preferences and a delicious array of choices are available. The only slight downside is the pool garden. While the pool is large and dreamy, it does attract swarms of mosquitoes (the only ones we...
Very pleasant and helpful. This property has a spectacular view looking west across the Chania coast line. Stratos was very helpful and had recommendations for restaurants in the area. Value property!
We loved this hotel! It was beautiful and quiet and near to everything. If you don't want to walk there is a bus that passes in front every 15 minutes.
The breakfast was the best of our trip by far! The rooftop terrace has a small Jacuzzi pool and amazing views. One morning it rained for a bit and I took advantage of the fitness room. They have a sauna as well.
The staff was so helpful and spoke the best English that we encountered in Europe. (Especially Jamie, you are a rockstar!) The owner...
When I say this hotel is a five star experience, it even feels like an understatement. From the staff to the view and the idyllic environment, The Theodore is perfection. I hesitate to even write a review because I worry it will get overrun with tourists, but not writing it would be a disservice to the hotel. It’s beyond expectations. A perfect place for a quiet beach stay.
Thank you Theodore!!!
The room was cleaned daily and felt safe. Great location. Only 5 minutes from the beach and 10 minutes to Old Town Chania.
Vasillis, was hospitable and helpful.
If there's anything that needs improvement, it would be the size of the bathroom. Way too tight. We are medium built yet you hit the walls or even the shower fixtures while in it.
It was an amazing experience at the resort. The food was excellent, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and welcoming. We especially enjoyed the beautiful pool area and beach.
A few small improvements would make the experience even more consistent with a five-star hotel: adding extra towel or robe hooks in the shower area, installing a hygienic shower in the bathroom, and providing a capsule coffee machine in the room.
The location is also very convenient—just a short taxi or bus ride from...
I recently stayed at Phos and had an absolutely incredible experience. From the moment I arrived, the customer service was top-tier—the entire team was attentive, welcoming, and truly dedicated to making sure my stay was perfect.
Everything about the property was excellent:
Accommodations: The rooms were beautiful, well-maintained, and incredibly comfortable.
Dining: I was thoroughly impressed with both breakfast and lunch. The quality and variety were outstanding, making every meal a highlight...
The staff was more than welcoming and our room with the hot tub on the balcony really put this place over the top! The breakfast buffet served daily was delicious and it was a perfect location for taking day trips in the rental car! We would definitely stay here again!!
Very friendly and helpful staff, room found and kept spotlessly clean, lovely pool and bar area, easy walk to the beach and to a number of excellent tavernas. Would not hesitate to recommend!
Room was clean and spacious, staff were very friendly and helpful, a/c worked very well, room decor was intentional and practical. Breakfast was very good, too!
